The figure is doing a yoga pose. I was thinking about the acrobatics and impossibility of this perfect balance and how what the world requires of us these days is often an impossible geometry. The titles of my pieces often come to me as I'm working and become the architecture: drawings and paintings form in relationship to the text. With Keep your head in the clouds I was sometimes thinking about artistic freedom and the significance of trusting that vision, of how important it is to the expansion of my own creative boundaries and ways of working. The last panel is double-sided, as well, which is important because the work isn't fixed--in terms of content, meaning or form.
